    it's blindingly obvious that the oil flowed to the top of the engine when he flipped it.

    It was upside down for a long time waiting for his Dad to pay for a tow truck. :)

    oil defies gravity by capillary action too! Try keeping it out of a merc wiring harness once the cam sensor starts to leak.. Ive seen the engine ecu full of oil and the wiring plug connector on the o2 sensor leaking oil onto the engine pipe.. Having said that the picture posted sure looks like valve cover,cam seals or oil gallery plugs at each end of the head leaking... Or if it was my car it would be all that plus some... Ha Ha Ha!!

    I'd be careful or one of them might refer to carrying a loaded handgun while asking after you, knowing full well you weren't around at the time.

    I'd object if he said that to me.
